On October 15, 2015, apollojustass made a post looking for new fest moderators. eatingfireflies, electric016, and sugarthief volunteered to become the new admins for ZEcret Santa. Unfortunately, sugarthief was also working on a Zero Escape Zine at the time and the mods decided it was best that they focus on the Zine. In 2016, the mods asked kagumari to become the third mod.
In 2016, ZEcret Santa created a collection on ArchiveOfOurOwn in which participants can post the fanfic they have written for the fest.
In 2018, the ZEcret Santa tumblr blog was backed up on Wordpress in response to the updates in the tumblr TOS and the tumblr purge.
